Un-hidden București

Un-hidden București is an interdisciplinary cultural project that (re)connects the capital’s residents with public spaces through participatory cultural experiences at the intersection of urban art, cultural heritage, and urban exploration. Inspired by Constantin Brâncuși’s artistic legacy in Bucharest, the project transforms the city into a setting for dialogue, a sense of belonging, and cultural participation.

The project schedule offers the public 5 guided tours, an interdisciplinary art installation, an exhibition, 2 interdisciplinary performances, and 2 debates, designed to invite participants to rediscover Bucharest through contemporary artistic and cultural perspectives.

Un-hidden Connections

Un-hidden Connections is an international cultural project taking place in Belgrade, which aims to reinterpret the work of Constantin Brâncuși through contemporary urban art from Romania. The project showcases 13 works of urban art inspired by Brâncuși’s legacy, presented in an exhibition accompanied by debates, workshops and multidisciplinary performances. Organised in partnership with the Serbian organisation Kruna, the project facilitates Romanian-Serbian cultural dialogue and the exchange of practices between artists and cultural professionals, highlighting the contemporary relevance of Romanian cultural heritage within a European context. Through its interdisciplinary approach, Un-hidden Connections contributes to raising the profile of Romanian culture on the international stage and to strengthening interest in its artistic values amongst contemporary audiences.

The project features an exhibition, two debates, two creative workshops and two multidisciplinary performances, offering the Serbian public a contemporary perspective on how cultural heritage can be rediscovered through contemporary artistic practices.

The cultural project Un-hidden Connections is produced by Save or Cancel.

This project is cofinanced by the Romanian Cultural Institute through the Cantemir Programme – a funding framework for cultural projects intended for the international environment.

Romanian Street Art: Zmogk

“This semi-abstract sketch explores the connection between the inner human state, the surrounding space, and the soundscape of contemporary life. At its centre is a meditative face, dissolving into a stream of light, color, and rhythmic visual noise.”

📍 Romexpo, Expoziției Avenue

Romanian Street Art with Zivink

“I used a basic colour palette in this work, transitioning between different worlds, from the inside to the outside. I took mural art to a place related to children’s books—playful and colourful, mixing farm life and street life together. As the main character, the child guides us, the viewers, through his world.”

📍 1 Iancului Avenue

Romanian Street Art with Zmaja

My idea behind the sketch for this wall was to create a mural that would serve as an homage to Romanian staples as well as directly reference elements from it’s surroundings, all in a positive light, emphasising happy looking characters and an overall storybook/fairytale vibe. I noticed the building where the wall is located had colourful windows on the front side, so I took this as a sign to tap into a more playful mural idea and so I implemented some of the window colours into the general colour palette so as to match the rest of the building.
